What are these Dave? I'm thinking of something, but they look too heavy for that, so I'm confused.


Dangerous Dave tells me they were a fave of Hancock. Basically I am taking them off some some jerk blocks or a power rack. I've set it up so that the bar sits at around the mid-stomach level and I take it off the block or rack and reset.

I'm also s**t at them but they do make front squats and jerks feel light on your shoulders and seem to help with posture.

Trained most days since last post but was rubbish at logging it here.

Start of next few weeks today and it felt great, feel really well conditioned after that last block. Anyway:

Squats
60 x 3
100 x 3
120 x 2
130 x 1
140 x 1
150 x 1

142.5 x 5
135 x 5
130 x 5

Snatch from block (mid-thigh)
40 x 3
50 x 3
60 x 2
70 x 2
80 x 2
82.5 x 2 x 2
77.5 x 3 x 2

Cleans
60 x 2
80 x 2
90 x 1
100 x 1
105 x 1
110 x 1
107.5 x 2 x 2
105 x 3 x 2

Jerk Dips
90 x 5
120 x 5
140 x 5
150 x 5
160 x 5

Power Jerk
60 x 3
80 x 3
90 x 2
100 x 1
105 x 1
107.5 x 1 (awesome rep, best I've done I think really effort less)
110 x 1 x 3

Moved the blocks down for snatches and it feels really different; actually have some pull now. Back off sets on 77.5 were really nice, pleased with the last set. Still wouldn't say I've figured out how to do snatch from blocks yet but getting better and wish every power jerk would be like that one set. Need to figure out what I did and replicate it if I can.

Yes mate, yeah. He clearly lifts a lot more than me but we basically go set for set and rep for rep with the same percentages. Little bugger is so efficient though. This weekend he hang cleaned 150. Bear in mind that he doesn't front squat that much more than that!

Nice one. Don't underestimate your part in his training regardless of the weights differences. He'll take a part of you onto that Glasgow platform. Wink

Cheers mate,I really appreciate that. I do what I can to push him hard when he needs it. I'm improving because I get to train with someone who moves really, really well and I guess he improves because I'll tell him if he is being a ponce and should put more weight on the bar (and vice versa). Grin

Bit forward on the snatch, was just going through the motions really and using the OH squat to stretch. Bad habit that, need to treat each rep the same.
